If mothers read this book and heeded its excellent ideas and economical menu ideas we would be rid of fat teletubby kids who are the future drain on the resousces of the Health Service. A must read for any mother !!!


There is a lot of useful information in this book as well as lots of recipes for really good traditional food (that I grew up on) as well as more modern recipes including curries. I was brought up in an environment where the only way to have a pie was if you baked it yourself, my mother would never have bought one from a shop nor could she have afforded too. She showed me from a young age how to turn one pound of mince into 3 family sized pies and this book works along the same lines, producing good home cooked food on a budget with all the taste and none of the artificial additives. I think this book should be the basis of cookery classes in school so that where some parents are failing to teach their children proper home cooking and budgeting this book would go a long way to redress the balance. Sorry if that sounds like a lecture, it wasn't meant to. I think this book is a must have even for an accomplished cook like myself. There are recipes for breakfasts, lunches, dinners, puddings, snacks, soups, nibbles and at the end of the book are 5 weekly meal plans for dinners listing the ingredients you need, to help prevent waste and enable you to budget more effectively. How many of us have bought things with the best intention of cooking them only to throw them in the bin when they have gone out of date? At this price you would be mad not to buy this book.


Fab book with great easy yo do recipies that use ordinary ingredients and are made without any fuss. Great for beginners and those sticking to a budget. The meal plans are great I don't know how I managed without it!


There is no pictures in the book, therefore, if you did not cook something before, it is hard to 'create' a dish.
I found the book very plain and boring.
I think there are better cookery books out there!


Buy this book!! I am so pleased with this book! Finally a simple guide that real busy families can use and its written in an amusing way that makes it a good read to! As a new mum I found myself struggling to put good healthy meals together quickly and of course having to try and keep the cost down. The part I found partically useful is the weekly meal planner where she even tells you exactly what to buy for the whole week worth of cooking from real supermarkets!! Absolute Genius!
